As a disabled law professor who has benefited from accommodations, I vehemently reject this article's claims. The rise in accommodations isn't fraud—it's progress. It means more disabled students are accessing higher education. This is cause for celebration, not suspicion. (1/5)

Let's be crystal clear: Accommodations aren't charity or cheating—they're legal rights that level the playing field. Suggesting otherwise is misguided and ableism . I strongly recommend reviewing the ADA before making such discriminatory assertions. (2/5)
We're nowhere near too many accommodations. Countless students are still fighting for basic access. Our duty is to remove barriers, not create new ones based on unfounded skepticism. The real issue is that we need to do more, not less. (3/5)
I'm thrilled to see more students seeking accommodations. It means our doors are finally opening wider. As someone who's lived this experience, I can attest: accommodations don't lower standards—they enable us to meet them. (4/5)
Apologies for the delayed response (hurricane aftermath), but this couldn't wait. To my disabled students and colleagues: I see you, I'm with you, and I'll continue advocating for your right to be here. (5/5)
